Since 2022, the Grand Arbiter, Eve Riot and I host our annual awards show, the Tippy Golden Teacup Awards, at the beginning of Lunar New Year. These awards are very dear to us as they are an opportunity to celebrate our CommuniTea and some of the incredible humans and cryptids who keep the teapots steeping, make sure there are plenty of seats at the tea table, and inspire so many of us to be kinder and to embrace our own creativity.
